A visit to Sn@tch resulted in me picking up the Sultry outfit, which included a bonanza of colours. A simple but pretty design; with a cropped, low neck lined top sporting the most wonderful frilly sleeve cuffs plus a mini system skirt with a cleverly matching prim attachment. This ensemble gives a multitude of colour mix and matches, meaning a ‘new’ outfit everyday.

I teamed Maitreya Gold Esprit shoes in pearl with it to give a neutral but matching addition.

Skin was Tuli’s Gina 01 from a long gone The Dressing Room collection: I wanted a tanned, confident look and this fitted the bill. My usual eyes, Miriel, and a hairdo bought a little while ago in a fatpack, fri.day’s Anna in Timid Brown.

The poses were a selection from Diesel Works recent release…Berrylicious.

Why, I hear you ask, am I dressed in a beautiful gown and covered in mud and sand? Well, as this is going to be a quickie, please see my Flickr page to find out. Anyway, I decided to turn the shoot into a blog post too.

The dress, new to me and a gift, is Azul’s Velma in ice. A stunning creation with extraordinary textures on both the system pieces and the flexi skirt frills. The satin is so good that I just want to touch it to see how smooth it is. This dress is both sexy and classy.

I chose PXL Creations Candy skin NAT Orange to contrast the ice blue of the dress and in keeping with its elegance too. Hair was Truth’s Midori with an Amacci Hair base tattoo, eyes were Miriels, and feet, were of course, Slink’s tiptoes.

To create the scene I wanted to portray I was also wearing an AITUI TATTOO, [Stellar] Sand Covered and .dystopia. mud bath layers, thanks to the multi layering system in the viewer I was using.

Location was Lost World and the sky preset was Dusty in the Kirsten viewer.

Old being the NDR Silva gown. This is which is a sexy, beautiful gown, whether worn short or long. Nicky Ree’s textures and designs stand the test of time. Want to turn heads then this is the dress to wear.

Two things new, first Truth hair from the sale...Midori. Beautifully made, messy updo that screams sexy. It matches the Silva dress wonderfully.

Second, Maitreya shoes, also from the sale. I wanted to pick out the hem detail on the dress so went for Esprit shoes in ecru. No extra invisi prims, easy to wear and easy to use HUD. Again, clever design and textures.

Nicky Ree has done it again…she has released a stunning gown, well made with fantastic textures, that has so many ways of wearing it that it’s dazzling.

I am wearing silver white with the matching veil so as to give the Bridal version a viewing. This is not only because it’s a beautiful dress but also because Nicky opened her Bridal Dressing Room this past week to make it easier for the bride to chose the perfect look.

The gown itself has two different tops, one cut out…showing just a hint of skin around the body but still elegant…and the other a full bodice….sculpturing the bodies curves. There are four skirts to choose from too…svelte, grand ball, long evening and evening.

One gets not only choice but hand drawn, jewellery inspired textured fabric gown designed to the highest quality.

The Andromeda Collection, in any colour, is on offer to group at the moment for a bargain price of L$1200, a saving of L$400. This group discount lasts until the 12th August.

I’ll certainly be wearing this around the grid to dance in, minus the veil of course, and is rapidly becoming my firm favourite evening dress of the season.

I was invited to a good friends wedding and through a major blonde moment on my behalf totally missed it as I got the time wrong…pesky time zones in RL.

If I had have gone this is what I had decided to wear…COCO’s elegant Tulip Hem Dress in beige. A wonderfully designed dress combining system clothes and sculpty bits. A black and white striped under layer of a simple short tube dress on system layers is over layed with a sculpted tube bustier and a tulip hemmed, black bowed sculpty skirt in beige.

I had to wear a hat of course so dug out ML’s Roma Chapeau from my inventory. LeLutka’s Claire clutch and N-Cores Temptation Xtreme Heels completed the major factors of the look.

Jewellry was the FM Forget Me Knot Pearl set with Zaara’s Kashiti bobble ring to finish.

Skin was PXL Creations new Candy skin with an old ETD hair, Roslin, which was modified to fit under the hat.

This look is very similar to one I would wear as a wedding guest in RL, so I was very happy with the outcome.

I’d like to wish Gitanne and Drake all the happiness in the world…congratulations!
